ID recro seats

*Recaro Seats*

Hello gentlemen,
A mate on a local forum is trying to ID a pair of fishnet recaro seats he is fixing up to install in on of his cars. he has a few different sets but hasn't come across a set like this one before. he has already decided they are similar to but not Isuzu Bighorn seats.

Quote:
Picked up a set of fishnet Recaros recently. Problem is, the passenger side one is missing its seat adjuster knob and plastic trims, and I would like to replace them, however I've never seen this style of adjuster mechanism/trim before.

Anyone happen to have seen these on other forums before, particularly Euro car-centric ones?

None of it matches any of the other Recaro seats I have stashed away although it's possible the trim covers match these ones.

the other odd thing about these seats is that the backs are able to completely collapse forward when you pull on the seat hinge lever.

Missing ones on passenger side:





Driver's side:



late 80's 911/944 seats have the lever that collapses the seat back how he describes but its a different assembly. anyone have any thoughts?

VW? After looking closer don't think it has the same adjuster. Good resource though.
